Skylights are elegant home upgrades that offer homeowners a list of financial and aesthetic benefits. While they can dress up any room with natural light, they can also transform dark areas, like the attic, into livable spaces.
In addition, installing a skylight in your home will increase curb appeal, attract potential buyers and even make your home more energy-efficient! If you want to add value to your home, save money on your energy bill and make your house more attractive, skylights are an excellent option.
On top of these amazing benefits, skylights can improve energy efficiency, so you can take advantage of tax credits when installing them. In August 2022, Congress signed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) into law. With this, the IRA raised the federal tax credit from 26% to 30% for eco-friendly property upgrades. These improvements include solar power, electric vehicle charging stations, skylights and more. The tax credit expires starting in 2035, when Congress may renew it. There is no maximum amount that can be claimed.
Average skylight installation costs are between lows of $1,500 and $5,500 on the higher end. The specific cost of your skylight will depend on factors like:
- Size and shape of skylight
- Style of the skylight, whether it’s fixed, tubular or ventilating
- Number of skylights installed
- Framing material, such as wood, vinyl or metal
While there will be an upfront cost, you reap many rewards when you install a skylight, from tax credits and energy efficiency to increased curb appeal.
